It's finally that time of year again...finals week. Easily the most stressful days of a college student's semester, and unfortunately, impossible to miss. So why not make the best of it with some puppies that are also feeling the struggle?
10. Ten all-nighters
Even though professors always say you get a full nights sleep before exams, let's be honest; we'll be up studying until the wee hours of the morning. We all do it, even when we promise ourselves we won't.
9. Nine rounds of takeout
Because let's face it, the dining hall isn't going to cut it for finals week. You deserve some Chinese food, and pizza, and wings...
8. Eight major tests
Of course the biggest part of finals is the tests themselves! Easily the most stressful part of it all is walking into the room and waiting for the huge packet to be thrown in your face. Don't you wish you could run away from it all?
7. Seven cans of Red Bull
How else are we going to stay up to study? Energy drinks, or any type of caffeine, becomes your best friend when pulling those all-nighters. Unfortunately, they also can give us too much energy, making sitting still to study almost impossible....
6. Six nights of cramming
Professors always say "study your notes every night so you won't have to be cramming for the final." In all honesty, though, how many of us actually do that? The day or two before an exam become the crucial time to cram everything you have learned over the last couple months all into one large study session. Hopefully, you remember it all!
5. Five calls back home.
At the end of finals week, there's always the sign of relief that the semester is over, and you get to return home for the summer. That last week of tests and stress definitely causes some homesickness to get in your head. Or, it could just be the eagerness to be done with those exams and be anywhere but in a classroom.
4. Four gym trips.
Even if you haven't been to the gym all year, suddenly going to the gym seems like a great idea. Anything to get a person away from studying for a couple of hours.
3. Three fits of screaming.
Right at that final stretch, screaming seems to be the only way out of it. But you're almost there, don't give up!
2. Two Netflix binges.
Typically during finals week, procrastination becomes your harsh enemy, and with that Netflix seems like the only way to escape the stress. A mini-binge (or two), is usually okay, as long as you can keep up with the studying as well!
1. One sigh of relief.
Ahhh, nothing feels better than walking out of your last exam! After all, that stress eating, cramming, and lack of sleep, you can finally kick back and hit the pool, just like this little guy!
Good luck with your finals!
